✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Conceived by Gérard Bertrand as a spiritual sanctuary and a tribute to peace and love, Clos d'Ora is a masterpiece of biodynamic viticulture nestled in the rugged terroir of Minervois-La-Livinière in the Languedoc. This exceptional red cuvée is crafted from a meticulously tended blend of Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Carignan, grown on clay-limestone soils. The vineyard is farmed entirely using animal traction—mules and horses—to preserve soil structure and foster a deep connection between the earth and the vine. The grapes are hand-harvested and vinified with utmost care, followed by patient aging in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is a profound expression of the Mediterranean garrigue, boasting intense dark fruit, complex spices, and velvety, mineral-driven tannins that reflect Bertrand's holistic philosophy of harmony with nature.

Gennem et kompromisløst fokus på biodiversitet, bæredygtighed og terroirets renhed skaber huset en alsidig portefølje af både stille vine, mousserende vine og hedvine. Vingården nyder international anerkendelse for ambitiøse prestigecuvéer som Cigalus, Clos d'Ora og Château l'Hospitalet samt for sine elegante tørre rosévine, udtryksfulde enkeltdruevine og historiske Vins Doux Naturels.
